Tracktor is an open-source web application for comprehensive vehicle management, enabling users to track and manage vehicles, fuel consumption, maintenance history, insurance, pollution certificates (PUCC), and other regulatory documents in one place. Tracktor is an alternative to May. The app features a user-friendly dashboard for visualizing key metrics and upcoming renewals, along with secure user authentication. It includes interfaces like a login page, charts for data visualization, fuel log, maintenance log, and sections for insurance and PUCC details. Tracktor offers a robust foundation for vehicle management with intuitive tracking and visualization capabilities. In this step by step guide I will show you how to install Tracktor on your UGREEN NAS using Docker & Portainer.

💡Note: This guide works perfectly with the latest Tracktor v1.4.1 release.

Please Support My work by Making a Donation. Almost 99,9% of the people that install something using my guides forget to support my work, or just ignore STEP 1. I’ve been very honest about this aspect of my work since the beginning: I don’t run any ADS, I don’t require subscriptions, paid or otherwise, I don’t collect IPs, emails, and I don’t have any referral links from Amazon or other merchants. I also don’t have any POP-UPs or COOKIES. I have repeatedly been told over the years how much I have contributed to the community. It’s something I love doing and have been honest about my passion since the beginning. But I also Need The Community to Support me Back to be able to continue doing this work.
